Riley Recap - VOLUME 5 ISSUE 4

Dear Riley Parents, Guardians, and Scholars,

I can’t believe we are already at the end of the first grading period! Thank you for a wonderful first nine weeks of school. It has truly been an honor getting to know you and your scholars.

The first grading period will conclude on October 15, 2025. We will be hosting parent/teacher conferences on Thursday, October 23, 2025. I hope your scholar has found the success they were striving for. Please know that we remain fully committed to supporting your child’s growth and achievement.

I can promise you the best of myself for your students each and every day. Please do not hesitate to contact me at shenderson2@sbcsc.k12.in.us if you have any questions or concerns during the year.

Our Goals:

1) Educate the Whole Student

2) Building Meaningful Relationships

3) A 95% attendance rate

4) A 90% graduation rate

We greatly appreciate the value that each and every one of our scholars and families brings to Riley. WE ARE THE PRIDE OF THE SOUTHSIDE! WE ARE #RILEYSTRONG!

Sincerely,

Shawn Henderson
